We are working on updating the OpenOffice.org Draw Guide for LibreOffice and will be producing a printed copy when it's done. So far we have two books in print (Getting Started and Writer Guide), one getting close (Calc) and three in progress (Impress, Draw, Math). The earliest the Draw Guide is likely to be available in print is August this year, and it could be later. The books are produced by volunteers, so it's difficult to predict who will have time to work on them and when. In the meantime, the user guide for OpenOffice.org Draw V3.2 might be of interest to you. Most of the features described are the same in OOo3.2 and LibreOffice 3.3-3.4. http://www.lulu.com/product/paperback/openofficeorg-3-draw-guide/12057802 --Jean Hollis Weber LibreOffice Documentation Team (Townsville, Australia) -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
